Oh..........it's all coming together now. So when the draft load becomes heavy. The engine continues to operate loaded but not loosing rpms from being lugged down. However the wheel speed decreases or stops? YES
Do the wheels always slow when towing a heavy load? NO - ITS VERY UNPREDICTABLE
Is possible to lugg or stall the engine with a towed load in 4th or a higher gear?
Cannot seem to stall the engine - it seems very happy to idle - the tractor feels like its getting hot - but engine temp guage stays constant...Seems like the wheels have trouble turning (like they are winding up)
Any difference when the trans is hot vs. cool? ALWAYS - COLD IS WAY MORE POWER THAN HOT
Has anybody set the free play on the foot clutch recently? i DID...AWHILE AGO 6YRS- IT WOULD NOT DEPRESS ENOUGH TO ALLOW THE PTO TO ENGAGE WITH A PIECE OF EQUIPMENT ATTACHED TO IT...NO ONE HAS LOOKED AT THAT SINCE i ADJUSTED IT - I ADJUSTED IT JUST ENOUGH TO ALLOW THE PTO TO ENGAGE.
Has anybody greased the foot clutch recently? NOT SURE WHAT THAT MEANS - IS THERE A NIPPLE?
There is a pressure regulator on the trans pump outlet. Plus a divert valve that sends trans oil to priority lubrication and brake loads if trans pressure falls. Either or both valves can become jammed with dirt or a run away oil filter o'ring gasket. I DON'T KNOW WHERE THOSE ARE...MIGHT HAVE A JD GUY WITH TIME TO LOOK AT IT FRIDAY MORNING...HE'S NOT SURE...
It would be better to repair this problem before a clutch wears through the fiber material. Then tears it's self to bits running steel on steel. What kind of trans oil? JD BRAND (THIS TIME - LAST YEAR IT WAS NAPA)
How does the tractor do operating a heavy pto load? NO KNOWN PROBLEM WITH PTO LOAD - EVERY TIME I'VE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE PTO IMPLEMENT - I WAS DEALING WITH A FLAT REAR TIRE OR TURNED AROUND TO SEE MY 3PT HITCH BUSTED....
